Episode 4
Presenter Donald Morrison takes a nostalgic look through the archive of the popular Gaelic current affairs series Cearcall. In the original series transmitted in the late 70's and the 80's, topics covered included fishing, crofting, language and politics. In this programme, features explored include a report on how RET was successfully operating in Norway. For years, the Norwegian experience was viewed with envy and in 1982, when Angela MacEachan reported on this subject, you will see that roll-on roll-off ferries were just starting in the islands.
In the second report, Cearcall visited Scalpay to discover how the decline in fishing affected the isle of Scalpay. With the closing of herring fishing and the price for lobster decreasing, it was very difficult to make a living in the fishing industry. This inevitably raised questions about the future employment hopes for young people.
